New Parish Councils
For Allbrook and in Chandler's
Ford, Hiltingbury and Velmore
Following a community governance review and public consultation,
the Council has established two new parish councils in the
unparished area of the Borough. There is a new parish council
for Allbrook (including part of north Boyatt Wood) and one for
Chandler’s Ford, Hiltingbury and Velmore.
What is a Parish Council?
• It is a separate tier of local government which sits
alongside the existing Borough Council and covers a local
area.
• It does not replace the Borough or County Councils, but
allows people to have more say over local issues.
• It has powers to provide or maintain community facilities,
including community centres, public open spaces, allotments,
cemeteries, litter bins and bus shelters.
• It is able to comment and lobby on matters of interest to
people in its area
